4.2. DVR Configuration Uploads
A configuration file is uploaded to a DVR when the DVR is first installed or when
settings need to be changed on DVRs in a fleet.
Configuration files can be uploaded at the DVR with a USB memory device or over
the network using vMax Web or vMax Commander applications.
To upload configurations with vMax Commander, see the vMax Commander
Installation and Configuration Guide (700-0100).

3. Connect the portable video monitor and USB mouse.
4. Insert the USB memory device into the USB port on the DVR.
